[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi - We have been testing out Highpoint's RocketRAID SATA 1820A card on one of our AMD64 boxes (as some of you have seen, we/ISC haven't had the best of luck with 3ware controllers on amd64 systems) Highpoint offers drivers/kernel modules for FreeBSD 5.3 (amd64 & i386); I remember Scott Long did some work to get the i386 driver into 5.3-REL, but I haven't seen the amd64 driver integrated as well. Are there any plans to do so (I hate having to remember to copy hptmv.ko every time I update this system's kernel) ;) FWIW in our testing, (w/ dd mostly) we have been getting around 80MB/sec transfer rate with this card in RAID5 configuration (using Hitachi Deskstar 400GB SATA drives) & 5.4-PRE cvsupped as of 48 hours ago. Very nice...
